<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 168546, member: 44"]One of our nieces sent me the following pic of a chest of drawers she has just into her possession. She is hoping I can help on info such as style, age, etc... The only info included was that there were no labels, trademarks, etc. on it. At this moment this is the only pic I have. I e-mailed her asking for more pics especially of the drawers, need measurements, etc...</p><p><br /></p><p>With those drawer pulls, my first thought was Hepplewhite, but with those brass paw feet on splay/flared legs, and top with scroll ends I'm also seeing Empire and possibly Regency. I just don't know. Is the wood mahogany, flame, and is the top and drawer fronts veneered? It does look damage with scratches, cracks, etc... I have no idea of a timeframe like possibly 1890s to 1910 or 1950s-1970s. Whatever the timeframe, probably not a period piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully in the next couple of days she will send more pic, etc...</p><p><br /></p><p>Tia!</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]46210[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
